[edit] History

talkdemonic was established by O'Connor in December 2002 after he moved from Pullman, Washington to Portland. It began as a musical project that was used to express his obsession with instrumental hip hop and electronic music. O'Connor said he was at a local club when he heard a voice utter the word "talkdemonic" and he felt it fit his new project perfectly. ^[1]

During a year period, talkdemonic recorded in O'Connor's basement, bedroom, Sky Onion studio and Miracle Lake studio. The product was "mutinysunshine," a full-length album on which Monlinaro played on five of the 14 tracks. In April 2004, Portland-based independent label Lucky Madison issued the record in CD format. In January 2005, "mutinysunshine" was released on blue vinyl.

[edit] Touring

Originally, O'Connor played live shows alone with Molinaro's pre-recorded viola pieces and accordion, banjo, guitar and piano played via laptop. In the summer of 2004, O'Connor convinced Molinaro to play live shows with him.

talkdemonic has since toured several times nationally and along the west coast. During a Midwest tour they opened for Clap Your Hands Say Yeah and The National.
